Paul Nienhiser

PETERSEN MEDIA:Competing with the MOWA both Friday and Saturday night, Paul Nienhiser flexed his muscle as he picked up his fifth and sixth wins of the season and swept the weekend of events.

"After a pretty dismal weekend of racing, we came back pretty strong and grabbed two more wins on two really slick tracks," Nienhiser said. "Great to get two wins, and get better both nights."

Friday night at Lee County Speedway Nienhiser would endure power steering issues prior to his heat race, and just narrowly made the call. Lining up fifth, Nienhiser would flex his muscle and work his way forward to finish second and earn a spot in the redraw.

Actually slipping back to third in the early stages of the race as Bill Balog and Mason Daniel got by, Nienhiser would work around the speedway as he would soon find some patchy rubber going down.

Getting back into the mix, Nienhiser would use a couple of restarts to his advantage as he powered back into the lead, and managed traffic well to capture his fifth win of the season.

Heading to Spoon River Speedway on Saturday night, Nienhiser again went to work early in the night as another charge to second in heat race action again locked him into the all-important redraw.

Pulling the three, Nienhiser would bide his time early in the feature, as he worked the middle and high grooves holding down the final spot on the podium.

Using the high side to his advantage, Nienhiser would go to work and make his way up to the top spot as he pounded the cushion.

Keeping an eye out for rubber, Nienhiser would stay committed to the cushion until slower traffic was able to keep pace with him down in the rubber and he moved down and persevered the lead and capped the weekend sweep.

"I can't thank everyone enough for all of their hard work," Nienhiser said. "Things are going well, and hopefully we can continue to win races."

ON TAP: Nienhiser is set for some 305ci action this weekend as he will be a Jacksonville Speedway on Friday night, and in Burlington, IA on Saturday.

PETERSEN MEDIA: Continuing to flex his muscle in 2019, Paul Nienhiser had a strong three-race weekend over Memorial Day holiday as he picked up his fourth win of the season on Friday night before capturing a fourth place finish on Sunday.

"It was a pretty good weekend for our race team," Paul Ninehiser said. "We were able to grab another win at Jacksonville on Friday night, and after struggling on Saturday at Lake Ozark, we came out Sunday with a really good car and just ran out of time I feel."

Going out late in time trials on Friday night at Jacksonville Speedway, the Chapin, IL driver would time the CAM2 Blue Blood Racing Oil/Mason Sound/Innovative Design entry in second quickest before going from fourth to second in heat race competition.

Find himself in the redraw, Nienhiser would pull the three, placing him in the second row to start the feature event. When the race went green, Nienhiser admitted that it took him a little while to get going.

Settling into third, a caution on lap five would allow Nienhiser to realize that he had a bit of a steering problem. Knowing he would have to get his elbows up, Nienhiser was up for the task and he would put all four wheels over the cushion when the green light flashed back on and raced into second, only to see another yellow flag negate his efforts.

On the ensuing restart, Nienhiser would use some gamesmanship as he dove low this time and worked into second, where he ran until the caution again flew on the 14th lap.

Making a bid for the leader on the restart, the battle would heat up as Nienhiser continued to run in second until a lap 18 restart set him up to take over the top spot. Going high, Nienhiser sailed around into the lead and never looked back as he led the rest of the way and ended up going on to win by nearly a straightway despite the steering issues.

Traveling to Lake Ozark Speedway on Saturday, Nienhiser admittedly just struggled no matter what he and his crew did. Racing out of the 'B', Nienhiser would make a few laps in the 'A' before calling it quits and saving his stuff for another night.

Making radical changes during the day Sunday, Nienhiser was drastically improved when racing action commenced that evening. Going from sixth to third in his heat race, Nienhiser moved into the redraw where the seven pill put him in the fourth row to take the green flag.Using the low side of the speedway much of the race, Nienhiser would stay inside the lead pack. As the laps clicked off, there was a gaggle of cars racing wheel-to-wheel in within striking distance to grab the win.

Battling with Jonathan Cornell late, Cornell was able to break Nienhiser's momentum and it would end up capping the weekend with a fourth place finish.

"Sunday we threw all kinds of stuff at our car and it worked really well," Nienhiser added. "We were close at the end, and I am curious to know how it would have played out in a few more laps. Big thanks to all of my guys for their hard work all weekend long."

ON TAP: Nienhiser will be in action on Thursday night at Macon Speedway with the MOWA, as his Friday and Saturday night plans are not yet solidified.

PETERSEN MEDIA:Able to sneak in a night of racing on Friday night at the nearby Jacksonville Speedway in Jacksonville, IL, Paul Nienhiser climbed back in the Caleb Wankel owned 305ci machine, and picked up his third win of the season.

"We made a last minute decision to hit Jacksonville Speedway on Friday night, and it ended up paying off for us," Nienhiser said. "The track prep crew has that placed so good right now, its quickly becoming my favorite places to race."

Drawing the second row for heat race action, Nienhiser had the elbows up as he quickly worked into second. With the track still fast early in the night, Nienhiser couldn't close in on the leader as he settled for second.

Sitting second in points once preliminary action was completed, Nienhiser would find himself on the front row for the 20-lap feature event.

Dragging racing the pole sitter into turn one, Nienhiser would get on the cushion and sail around to rocket into the race lead. Out in front, Nienhiser simply would not be denied on this night.

With a very strong car underneath him, the Chapin, IL driver hit his marks lap after lap, and turned in a dominating performance, as he would again park in Jacksonville Speedway victory lane.

"We really have Caleb's car running great right now," Nienhiser added. "It is a blast racing with friends, and I am extremely excited to get him another win."

ON TAP: Nienhiser is hoping to get back to racing this weekend with either the All Star Circuit of Champions or the MOWA.

PETERSEN MEDIA:With more weather hammering the Midwest, Paul Nienhiser again found himself frantically changing plans all weekend long before finally finding sun in Wilmot, WI as battled with the IRA and came home with a fourth place finish.

"We changed plans a few times before settling in on Wilmot Raceway, and I'm glad we did because we got to work on some stuff that we had been struggling with, and it worked out for us," Nienhiser said.

With a couple of starts at the track in years past, Nienhiser entered the night with some confidence as he would go out late in time trials and still turn in a good time as he ended up 12th fastest aboard the CAM2 Blue Blood Racing Oil/Mason Sound/Innovative Design machine.

Lining up on the pole of his heat race, the Chapin, IL chauffer would need to grab the win to make the redraw. Giving the leader everything he had early in the race, Nienhiser would simply get beat as he settled for second, which was still good enough to put him in the feature event.

Finding himself in the 12th starting spot on a track that was slick and had no real cushion built up, Nienhiser decided to make some radical changes to his setup as the track conditions were the type that have been hounding him as of late.

Working to his liking, Nienhiser had a rocket underneath him as he could put his machine anywhere on the speedway and make grip as he worked his way to the front.

Battling with Rico Abreu for much of the race, Nienhiser would race into the Top-Five, as he sat in third on a late restart. Feeling his car going away just before the yellow, Nienhiser would get his elbows up on the restart as he was well in the hunt.

Going back to green, Ninehiser still wasn't as strong as he was early in the race, and would allow Abreu to get by him as he capped his night off with a fourth place finish.

"It was a pretty good night, and I am happy with what we learned," Nienhiser added. "With all of this rain, I am just happy we were able to get a race in. Thanks to everyone who supports our team and helps us out."

ON TAP: Nienhiser will again play meteorologist this week as he plans for this weekend's racing action.

PETERSEN MEDIA: Waiting to see where Mother Nature would allow him to race over the weekend, Paul Nienhiser returned to the seat of the Caleb Wankel owned 305ci Winged Sprint Car on Saturday night at 34 Raceway and picked up his second win of the season.

"It got a little crazy with our plans with rain cancelling so many different races around the area," Nienhiser said. "Caleb Wankel got his engine back Friday morning, and really wanted to race and it definitely paid off for us."

Following some trailer issues that ultimately saw the team utilize the Paul Nienhiser Racing transporter, and check in at the speedway just in time. With a big Late Model race taking center stage, a packed house would see the Chapin, IL driver shine on this night.

Drawing the second row for heat race action, Nienhiser would look sporty in the his first laps in the No. 5 machine on this night as he raced his way to second and earned a berth in the 10-car redraw for the feature.

Pulling the five, Nienhiser would grid the field from the third row with $1000 up for grabs on this night. On a slick, wide surface on this night from the late model action, Nienhiser would use every inch of real estate to work his way up into second.

Using a restart, Nienhiser would use the top of three and four to sail around the leader and take over the top spot in the race. Once out in front, Nienhiser would dip back to the low groove where he would hit his marks.

Running strong out front, Nienhiser would not be challenged on this night, as he would race his way to his second feature event win of the season.

"It was a fun night of racing," Nienhiser said. "World of Outlaws star, Gravy Fairchild was home for the weekend and he came out and helped as did Alan Devlin, and we really had a blast."

ON TAP: Nienhiser will battle with the World of Outlaws this weekend as he will be at Lake Ozarks Speedway on Friday, I 55 Speedway on Saturday, and Jacksonville Speedway on Sunday.

Nienhiser Races into Chili Bowl Prelim 'A' Before Part Failure in Saturday 'C'

PETERSEN MEDIA:Feeling really good about the Joe Roosevan owned entry heading into the Chili Bowl following the Junior Knepper 55 back in December, Paul Nienhiser had a nice week in Tulsa, OK highlighted by him racing to a ninth place finishing during his preliminary night feature event.

"Thought it was really a bittersweet way for our Chili Bowl to end on Saturday night, I am really pleased with how we performed and how things went for the most part," Paul Nienhiser said. "I really think we had a shot to work our way towards the 'A' on Saturday but we just had bad luck in the our first main."

Nienhiser attacked the River Spirit Expo Center on Monday night where he would kick his 2019 Chili Bowl off by working his way forward and finishing fourth in his heat race.

Advancing into an all important qualifier, the Chapin, IL pilot would continue to accrue important Chili Bowl points as his third place finish would put him 13th overall and solidly in the feature event.

With points going out the window in the feature, it would be about the main event finish to set up Saturday night's starting point. Using some midget experience from a handful of starts in 2018, Nienhiser would slowly work his way forward as he was mindful to stay out of trouble.

When the rapid fire 25-lap finale was finishes, Nienhiser crossed over the stripe in the ninth position which was good enough to put himself on the front row of a Saturday night 'C' Main, and safely put him in the 'Nigh Show' as it is referred to on Saturday night.

Getting off to a great start on Saturday, Nienhiser looked to be well on his way to one of the twin 'B' Mains. Having a strong car underneath him, bad luck would surface and a throttle linkage failure would end Nienhiser's Chili Bowl as he would make the right hand turn getting into turn three and head back to the pit area.

"It was really disappointing," Nienhiser added. "By far the best I have felt at that race, and really just have to thank everyone that made it possible. It is frustrating but it really has us hungry for the season ahead and hopefully another run at the Chili Bowl in 2020."

ON TAP: Nienhiser is hoping to return to the track when the World of Outlaws invade Cotton Bowl Speedway in Paige, TX on February 22nd and LoneStar Speedway in Kilgore, TX on February 23rd.

PETERSEN MEDIA: Venturing to Jacksonville Speedway on Friday night to battle with the both the WAR Non-Win Sprint Cars and the MOWA winged series, Paul Nienhiser would eventually park the non-wing car following heat races before battling for the MOWA win and settling for a fourth place finish.

"It was a fun Friday night," Nienhiser said. "I turned my first ever laps in a non-wing car and had some speed, and we flirted with the win in the winged car."

With 42 WAR cars checked in, Nienhiser would flex his muscle early in the night as he would wind up third quickest in hot laps, which would be his only laps prior to his heat.

The Chapin, IL pilot would grid the field from the second row of his WAR heat race and somehow would have suspension issues getting into turn one as a torsion arm would give way.

Still in third despite the issue, Nienhiser would try to race on and would end up bouncing into the turn three wall but was able to get slowed up enough before contact to avoid major damage. Following this, his night with WAR would be over as he turned his sole focus to MOWA action.

With 33 winged cars in the pit area, Nienhiser timed his CAM2 Blue Blood Racing Oil/Mason Sound/Innovative Design entry in third quickest in time trials before muscling his entry to an important fourth place finish despite losing power steering on the opening lap.

The fourth place finish would be important as it would put him in the redraw based on his time trial effort and the seven pill put him in the fourth row for the feature event.

Under green, much of the field would go to work on the tracks' preferred line which was the top on this night, but Nienhiser had other ideas as he was able to make the bottom groove work and race his way up to second late in the race.

A pivotal yellow with eight laps to go would put Nienhiser on Justin Peck's rear bumper and he would follow him once the green flag was displayed again. Dipping low to try and make his move late in the race, Nienhiser would miss his mark and clip the tire which caused him to get his front wheels in the air.

Still able to clear the slider, Nienhiser thought he would be good but a handful of cars were able to turn down under him as he slid through the slick and put him back to fourth where he would finish.

"We went for it, and just came up short," Nienhiser said. "It was a fun race, and as things get closer to wrapping up this season we will continue to do what we have been doing and look for a few more wins before winter."

ON TAP: Nienhiser will return to Jacksonville Speedway on Friday night to battle with the World of Outlaws and on Saturday he will be in action with the POWRi at Belle-Clair Speedway.

PETERSEN MEDIA: Getting back to racing over the weekend, Paul Nienhiser would run with the Sprint Invaders on Friday and Saturday aboard Scott Bonar's No. 50 machine before closing his weekend out back in the No. 9x entry with the IRA at Angell Park Speedway.

"It was a really great weekend, and I have to thank Scott Bonar for the opportunity," Nienhiser said. "We had a fast car two nights, and I was able to take a little bit of what we did and apply it to my car on Sunday night and it worked really well so a ton was gained, for sure."

Friday night at Lee County Speedway, Nienhiser got off to a very nice start as he was able to advance from sixth to finish third in his heat race. Not qualifying for the Dash, the Chapin, IL driver would take the green flag from the night starting spot.

In the opening couple of laps, Nienhiser was able to make some big time moves as he found himself all the way up in third and gaining on the leaders. Taking over second, Nienhiser would close in on Randy Martin only to see the yellow erase the gap and put Nienhiser on Martin's bumper.

Not quite strong enough to overtake the lead in clean air, Nienhiser would flex his muscle in traffic and get by and take over the race lead. Looking very good in traffic, a caution with just six to go was exactly what Nienhiser did not want to see.

Having his hands full in clean air, Nienhiser would hold the top spot as long as he could before giving the lead up with just three-laps to in the race and settling for second.

Saturday night Nienhiser and Bonar traveled to 34 Raceway in Burlington, IA where Nienhiser would pick up the heat race win on the locked down track before going from sixth to fifth in the Dash.

Lining up sixth in the feature event after the redraw, Nienhiser would have another great car underneath him in the feature event as he could go anywhere he needed to as he quickly jumped up to second.

Gaining on the leader in traffic, a lapped car would jump from the bottom to the top leaving Nienhiser with nowhere to go and there would be contact with Nienhiser doing everything but flip. Though the damage was limited it was enough to bring Nienhiser's night to an early end.

Traveling to Angell Park Speedway on Sunday night aboard his family owned machine, Nienhiser would take a little bit from what he and Bonar did over the weekend and try it on his car and would be very pleased with how things felt. Timing the CAM2 Blue Blood Racing Oil/Mason Sound/Innovative Design entry in third quick during time trial, Nienhiser would battle a torsion bar coming out of adjustment and working itself loose but was still able to finish second in the heat.

Drawing the nine-pill in the redraw, a re worked greasy surface would make the start of the feature event very interesting for many drivers. Taking evasive action as a couple of guys got out of shape in front of him, Nienhiser would slip back to nearly dead last in the opening laps as he settled back in.

With the feature going non-stop, Nienhiser would have to make up ground the hard way though he would make it look easy as he rallied back up to take the checkered flag in the seventh position.

"It was frustrating we started the race with the track not quite ready, and in the end it saw us get the short end of the stick," Nienhiser said. "On the plus side, that was the best my car has felt in a while and it has me really excited for the next couple of weeks."

ON TAP: Nienhiser will be in action at Lake Ozarks Speedway on Saturday night.

Nienhiser Picks Up Top-10 Finish with the World of Outlaws Craftsman Sprint Car Series at Cedar Lake Speedway

PETERSEN MEDIA: Spending his weekend in New Richmond, WI taking on the World of Outlaws Craftsman Sprint Car Series, Paul Nienhiser and his team would make vast improvement from Friday to Saturday as Nienhiser capped his weekend with a 10th place finish.

"Friday night I just felt like we were okay when the night started and never really found the balance I was looking for," Nienhiser said. "Everyone on the team worked really hard and I was really happy with how we progressed all weekend long."

Timing in 20th fastest in time trials on Friday night in the CAM2 Blue Blood Racing Oil/Mason Sound/Innovative Design No. 9x, Nienhiser would line up seventh in his heat race. Working on getting better for heat race competition, the Chapin, IL driver would make a couple of nice moves to pick up the final transfer to the feature event on the race's last lap.

Continuing to go through his car, Nienhiser would take the green flag from the 17th starting position and would have a tough road in front of him. Though he admittedly felt more comfortable, Nienhiser knew he still had work to be done after finishing 20th on this night.

Saturday night Nienhiser would get off to a little better start as he would time in 18th in time trials before working his way up to finish fifth in his heat race and move into the 41-lap feature event.

Feeling the best he had felt all weekend, Nienhier and company continued to tune on the Bradshaw Custom Pumping/Wessler Bros. Agency/Bob Hawks Auto Body machine in preparation for the upcoming feature event.

With some confidence in his entry, Nienhiser would work his way forward and find himself inside the Top-10 as he battled with some of the best in country. Jumping up late in the race, a restart would hinder Nienhiser as he would lose a couple of positions though still managed to hang on to finish 10th with 'The Greatest Show on Dirt'.

"Leaving the weekend I feel really accomplished after how far we were off when we unloaded on Friday night," Nienhiser added. "I had a ton of confidence in the feature on Saturday night with how we felt in the heat race and in the opening laps of the feature. All in all it turned out to be a good weekend, and I am looking forward to getting back to Lincoln, IL this weekend."

ON TAP: Nienhiser will be back in action on Friday night at Lincoln Speedway in Lincoln, IL with MOWA.

Nienhiser Collected Amidst Great Run with the World of Outlaws at Fairbury

PETERSEN MEDIA: Looking to ride some recent momentum into a big week of racing with the World of Outlaws, Paul Nienhiser would have his best run to date going with the series last week in Fairbury, IL until getting collected in a mid-race tangle and being relegated to a 14th place finish.

"We had such a good car on Tuesday night in Fairbury," Paul Nienhiser said. "Unfortunately a couple of cars got together in front of us and we had nowhere to go and got in on the pile up. It is a bummer, but that is part of bullring racing."

Taking part in the series' first visit to the speedway, Nienhiser timed the CAM2 Blue Blood Racing Oil/Mason Sound/Innovative Design backed No. 9x entry in eighth quickest in qualifying time trials.

Lining up in the second row of his heat race, Nienhiser would find himself in a very entertaining battle with Brent Marks, and Cory Eliason for the second and final berth in the Sears Craftsman Dash. Exchanging positions lap after lap, the Chapin, IL driver would end up finishing fourth which would ultimately line him up in the sixth row of the feature event.

On the slick surface, Nienhiser went to his notebook from the 2017 season and got his machine dialed in for the feature event as he anticipated some rubber going down around the cushion.

Having his car good enough to run high, low, and even through the middle, Nienhiser would find himself as high as sixth during the latter stages of the race. With 15 laps to go, cars would get out of shape in front of him and doing his best to avoid the incident, Nienhiser would ultimately have nowhere to go and would become involved.

Making a trip to the work area, a little extended time would allow the Nienhiser crew to get him back on track where he would end his night with a 14th place finish.

Heading to Jackson, MN to take part in the Jackson Nationals with the World of Outlaws Craftsman Sprint Car Series over the weekend, rain on Thursday would push the opening night of the event back to Friday night.

Fighting issues early in the night, Nienhiser would struggle to diagnose the problem as he found himself in the 'C' Main. Continuing to try and find what hindered them, it would prove to be a fuel pump and it would finally give way during the 'C', and Nienhiser's night would end early.

Saturday afternoon brought on some day racing as officials opted to run the scheduled Thursday program before Saturday's finale.

During hot laps, something would again be amiss under the hood of Nienhiser's machine and trying to make it work with it being the only 410ci engine they had with them, the team would opt to play it safe and call it a weekend early.

"We just had issues at Jackson Motorplex, and instead of hurting our only 410ci engine trying to figure things out, we opted to call it a weekend," Nienhiser said. "I really have to thank everyone on this team for their hard work over a busy week. I simply couldn't do it without all hands being on deck."

ON TAP: Nienhiser is hoping to return to action Friday night at Attica Raceway Park and on Saturday at Eldora Speedway with the All Star Circuit of Champions.

PETERSEN MEDIA:Things are clicking for Chapin, IL driver Paul Nienhiser. Scoring a pair of wins over Memorial Day Weekend, Nienhiser stayed hot this past weekend as he flirted with victory again Thursday night at Macon before scoring his third win in five races on Friday night in Lincoln, IL.

"It was a really good weekend for our team," Nienhiser said. "I wish I wouldn't have made a mistake in traffic on Thursday night, but we were able to win Friday and ran decent with the Outlaws on Saturday."

Lining up in the second row of his heat race at Macon on Thursday night, Nienhiser would make some early moves high atop the speedway before dipping low with a couple to go to grab the win and earn high point honors for the night.

Pulling the six in the redraw, Nienhiser continued to put his right-rear on the fence as he carved his way forward into second. As the leaders got into traffic, Nienhiser continued to flex his muscle aboard the CAM2 Blue Blood Racing Oil/Mason Sound/Innovative Design machine, as he was able to forge ahead into the race lead.

Working through traffic, Nienhiser would close in on a slower car and actually make contact to his competitors left rear and he would spin to a stop giving up a straight away lead. With front end damage, Nienhiser would retired to the pit area for the night.

Putting a tough ending behind him, Nienhiser and company traveled to Lincoln, IL on Friday night for more MOWA action where he would look to duplicate success from 2017.

Lining up fourth in his heat race, Nienhiser would make a big move on the outside of the speedway when the green flag dropped as he would grab the lead and lead flag to flag and qualify for the redraw.

Drawing the coveted one pill in the draw, Nienhiser would line his machine up on the pole for the feature event. With the top the preferred line on this night, Nienhiser told him self to run consistent smooth laps as he paced the field.

Despite a handful of cautions, Nienhiser would never seriously be challenged on this night as he simply dominated the race and pocketed his third feature event win of the season, which was his third win in his last five starts.

Saturday night saw the team travel to Wilmot, WI to take on the World of Outlaws for the 'Badger 40'.

Getting off to a slow start, Nienhiser would time the Bradshaw Custom Pumping/Wessler Bros. Agency/Bob Hawks Auto Body entry in 23rd quickest in qualifying time trials.

Lining up eighth in his heat race, Nienhiser would start the process of digging out of his hole as he would work his way up to fourth. Getting tight in the race's closing laps he would slip back to sixth, but on this night that was good enough to move him into the 40-lap feature event.

Following a rainstorm that delayed the program, Nienhiser would take the green flag from the 17th starting position on a locked down, hooked up racing surface. Doing all he could on the quick surface, Nienhiser would race his way up to 12th at one point in the feature event, but a fast paced Brent Marks would soon put him a lap down.

Once going a lap down, Nienhiser made the decision to pull of the racing surface and call it a night, as he would be scored 17th on the official rundown.

"My only complaint about our weekend was my mistake on Thursday night," Nienhiser said. "Other than that I really have to thank my crew for continuing to work hard and give me an awesome car to drive. We have a big week with the World of Outlaws this week so I am focused on making sure we are the best each time we roll out."

ON TAP: Nienhiser will be in action tomorrow night at Fairbury American Legion Speedway and then this Thursday-Saturday night at Jackson Motorplex for the Jackson Nationals.

PETERSEN MEDIA:Continuing to grind and fight through a tough handful of races to date in 2018, Nienhiser was finally rewarded for his efforts over the weekend as he scored wins at Lake Ozark Speedway and Jacksonville Speedway.

"It was just a great weekend," Paul Nienhiser said. "To finally get a MOWA win at my home track of Jacksonville Speedway and to hear the crowd like that was a pretty special feeling."

Nienhiser's weekend kicked off on Friday night as he returned to Lake Ozark Speedway for the Spring 360 Nationals. Lining the CAM2 Blue Blood Racing Oil/Mason Sound/Innovative Design entry up on the outside of the front row of his heat race, the Chapin, IL driver would get the jump and go on to grab the win which was huge for passing points on this night.

Moving into the redraw, Nienhiser drew the three pill which would place him in the second row for the opening night feature event. When the race came to life, Nienhiser would jump into the second spot as he then stalked race leader, Zach Daum for the next 20-laps looking for away around him.

Late in the race, Nienhiser would find a little moisture on the bottom on turn two and would take over the race lead, however a caution would negate his pass and put him back to second. The restart would see Nienhiser execute the same move and out in front he would leave the field in his wake as he carved through traffic wit precision and was able to score his first win of the season.

Locking himself into the redraw for Saturday night's $11,000 to win feature event, Nienhiser would have a little luck on his side in the redraw as the one pill put him on the pole for the feature event.

Rolling out for the feature event on an immaculately prepared surface, Nienhiser would flex his muscle early as he jumped out to the early lead and set a very nice pace out front.

A couple of early cautions would slow Nienhiser's pace, but one around the halfway point would be troublesome for Nienhiser.

"I felt my right rear was starting to seal over and I knew we would be in trouble during the last half of the race," Nienhiser added.

When the racing action resumed Seth Bergman would make a move to get around Nienhiser and from there the Illinois product would slip through the Top-10 as he faded back to end his Saturday night with a ninth place finish.

With weather clearing in Illinois, Nienhiser and his team would make the trip to their home track, Jacksonville Speedway, as they were geared up to battle with the MOWA.

Timing in third quickest overall in time trials, Nienhiser would grid the field from the fourth starting spot in heat race competition. Jumping up into second on the start, lapped traffic would actually become a factor in this heat and Nienhiser would ride the rim to pick up the win.

Staying hot in his redraws over the weekend, with some help form a young fan, the four pill would put Nienhiser in the second row of the starting line up for the feature event.

As the race came to life, Nienhiser was very methodical in his moves on the short confines of the raceway. Jumping out front once the leaders got into traffic, Nienhiser would not be denied on this night. With his first ever MOWA win at this home track in his sights, Nienhiser would hit his marks and race to his second feature event of the weekend."

"To win Friday at Ozark really set a good tone for us," Nienhiser said. "I made a bad call in setup on Saturday night and that was disappointing but we still had really good speed, and on Sunday night it was just an all around good night with so many family and friends there, and to have the entire crew there to celebrate was awesome. We can't enjoy it too long though because we have a short week in front of us."

ON TAP: Nienhiser gets back to it Wednesday night as he will take on the World of Outlaws at Fairbury American Legion Speedway, before a pair of MOWA races on Friday and Saturday at Macon and Lincoln Speedway, before another tilt with the World of Outlaws on Sunday at Wilmot.

PETERSEN MEDIA: Making his first trip to Knoxville Raceway since the 2015 season, Paul Nienhiser was in action on Saturday night competing in the 360ci division where he would come home with an 11th place finish.

"It was an up and down night at Knoxville on Saturday but some good came from it," Nienhiser said. "We were off on our fueling for time trials, and got that fixed and ran a good heat race. I have never had a good balance at Knoxville so to have speed in our heat and the feature was really good."

Timing the CAM2 Blue Blood Racing Oil/Mason Sound/Innovative Design backed No.9x entry in 17th quickest in qualifying time trials, Nienhiser and crew went to work on their car with the Chapin, IL driver slated to line up on the front row of his heat race.

Making the right adjustments, Nienhiser would be shot out of a cannon when the green lights flashed in heat race action. Jumping on the hammer, Nienhiser would leave the field behind as he went on to pick up the win by over 2 seconds.

Sitting 11th in points after Time Trials and his Heat race, Nienhiser would find himself in the sixth row for the feature event. Continuing to have the same speed in the feature that he did in his heat race, Nienhiser would lay down some great laps on the famed ½ mile speed plant as he worked his way up to seventh.

Closing in on the fifth and sixth place cars during a green flag run, a caution would slow his pace and re rack the field. Under the caution Nienhiser's bleeder would stick and he would lose substantial air pressure in his right rear tire.

Hanging on for dear life and battling an extremely tight race car with the soft right rear, Nienhiser would do a great job of hanging on as he would only lose a couple of positions as he took the checkered flag in 11th.

"It was a disappointing end to our night because I thought we had a shot at a Top-Five," Nienhiser added. "I am really excited to get back to Knoxville though because I feel like we are on to something. We are hoping we can get back soon and run both the 360ci and 410ci programs."

ON TAP: Nienhiser has a busy weekend ahead as he will be in action at Lake Ozark Speedway on Friday night with the ASCS Warrior Region for the first night of the 360 Sprint Nationals. Saturday Nienhiser will decided between another night at Lake Ozark or a trip to Pevely, MO to race with MOWA before he closes his weekend out on Sunday at Jacksonville Speedway with MOWA.

Paul Nienhiser Eyes Knoxville Raceway Saturday Night

PETERSEN MEDIA:Paul Nienhiser is starting to feel like he has a bull's-eye on his car. The start of the season has been hard on the Chapin, IL driver but he has been fast each night out and is hoping to turn his luck around this weekend in Knoxville, IA.

"It's unfortunate our season has started like this, but my crew has really done a great job of putting a fast car on the track each and every night,' Nienhiser said.

Taking on the Lucas Oil ASCS National Tour on Wednesday and Thursday night in Kansas, Nienhiser kicked the action off at Humboldt Speedway where he would line the CAM2 Blue Blood Racing Oil/Mason Sound/Innovative Design entry up in the fourth row of his heat race.

On a very slick surface that was deceiving to the eye, Nienhiser would struggle to make grip in his heat though he was able to pick up two valuable positions as finish fifth. The passing point format would be kind to him on this night as he would sit 11th in points after heats and solidly in the feature event.

When the feature event went green, Nienhiser was able to quickly pick up a couple of positions and race his way inside the Top-10. Down the front stretch, Nienhiser would feel a fellow competitor run him up to the wall and his would force him to check up and lose momentum and lose several spots.

Back in 12th, Nienhiser would push the issue trying to race back up inside the Top-10, but as he continued to fight hard he would use his tires up and would end up finishing 12th on this night.

Traveling to Lakeside Speedway on Thursday night, Nienhiser would draw the front row of his heat race where he would slip back to fourth in the opening laps but was able to patiently work his way back up to finish second and again have enough points to transfer into the feature event.

Sitting ninth in the standings, Nienhiser would just miss out on the redraw and on this night he would take the green flag from the ninth starting position. In what was his first appearance at the track since he competed with the World of Outlaws back in 2014, Nienhiser and company would throw some radical changes at their car before taking the green flag.

Getting off to a great start, Nienhiser flexed his muscles early as he quickly raced his way up into the fifth position and closed in on third and fourth as the leaders battled through traffic.

A caution flag would erase all gaps that Nienhiser had and he would look to capitalize when the action resumed. With a slower car in the mix on the restart, Nienhiser would feel the wrath as an unexpected lane change would cause damage to his front end but somehow he was able to keep his machine fired and would again restart in fifth with a battered front end.

When the race came back to life, Nienhiser continued to run well despite having a bent up front end and soon took over fourth. Going into turns one and two a few laps later, Nienhiser's front end would finally give way, and it was cause him to get into an infield tire and bring his night to and end.

"Thursday night was really good for my confidence because we showed some awesome speed against a great group of cars," Nienhiser added. "We are planning on getting to Knoxville this weekend to run double-duty. Our 410 has been at Rider, so we are looking forward to getting that back and breaking it in."

ON TAP: Nienhiser is scheduled to be in action on Saturday night at Knoxville Raceway.

PETERSEN MEDIA: Making the trip to Park Jefferson Speedway in North Sioux City, South Dakota over the weekend, Paul Nienhiser would have a great weekend that saw him record a seventh place finish during the South Dakota Sprint Car Nationals.

"I felt like we had another great car with a ton of speed, but unfortunately we have had some bad luck with track's taking rubber on us," Paul Nienhiser said. "We put ourselves in a decent position after the heat races on Friday night, but Saturday conditions kind of relegated our finish."

With drivers competing in a pair of heat races on Friday night to determine how their Saturday night would play out, Nienhiser opened his weekend up by lining the CAM2 Blue Blood Racing Oil/Mason Sound/Innovating Design backed No. 9 entry up in the third row for his first heat race.

On the slick racing surface, Nienhiser was able to get off to a good start as he quick overtook the fourth position. Carrying a lot of speed, the Chapin, IL driver made a two for one move to work into second where he would finish, and earned valuable points for the event.

The surface would continue to deteriorate by the time his second heat race took to the racing surface and with rubber down on the speedway, lining up sixth would be a bit of a challenge. With good points under his belt from his first round, Nienhiser and company were able to take some gambles on their set up as they looked for a way to maneuver through rubber.

Struggling to get going when the race came to life, Nienhiser would make a couple of nice moves late to finish fourth and lock himself into Saturday night's $10,000-to-win feature event.

10th in points after Friday, Nienhiser would grid the field from the fifth row for the feature event. After a good hot lap session, Nienhiser felt confident heading into the feature but the surface however looked like it may take rubber again.

When the race went green it was only a couple of laps before rubber began to go down and cars would get into single file formation. Getting into eighth, Nienhiser would take over seventh on a restart as he was mindful to keep his tires underneath him incase the end of the race became a battle of durability.

Holding down seventh, Nienhiser would track down fifth and sixth and would try to get out of the rubber to get around them but with nothing to lean on, he would think better of the situation and settle back into line where he would close his weekend out with a seventh place finish.

"I really have to thank my crew for all of their hard work," Paul Nienhiser added. "We have been really fast all year, and hopefully I can get this thing up front and get my guys the finish they deserve. It was a good weekend for our team and we will see what we can do this weekend."

ON TAP: Nienhiser will battle with the World of Outlaws at Lake Ozark Speedway on Friday night and with the ASCS Tour on Saturday night at Lucas Oil Speedway.
